Melodically, there was zero innovation, with hardly any riffs being memorable barring one or two. The whole album sounded like the run-of-the-mill virtuosic instrumental djent/progressive metal band combined with a few jazzy chords and riffs that identify the music as AAL. On its own, it was stands out as a decent record, but compared to what the band has done in the past...a flop.
